THE COLONIAL & DOMINION POSTAGE STAMPS ISSUED TO COMMEMORATE THE CORONATION OF H.M. KING GEORGE VI MAY 12TH 1937. Complete collection of 412 mint and used stamps.
On May 12, 1937, Great Britain and 56 members of the British Empire celebrated the Coronation of King George VI with this attractive collection of 1937 coronation stamps. After the sudden death of King George V and the scandalous abdication of King Edward VIII, the British Empire gladly accepted the shy, soft-spoken George VI as their new King. This popular Omnibus issue depicts a youthful George VI with his wife Queen Elizabeth, and was surprisingly printed with just a few months' notice. This spectacular mint & used collection of King George VI stamps is displayed in a gold-titled album and includes the desirable sets from Hong Kong and Newfoundland!
